Either is fine, I normally use just plain diff.  Anything that I can use to
patch the module I have will work, though.

ThML isn't necessary for Bible texts.  It's primarily a markup language and
GBF seems better suited to Bible markup than ThML.  Even if we did have ThML
marked Bible texts, we would still have to re-index them.

I will take a look at the two Danish Bible sources you mentioned, though.
Are they the same translation as the one we currently use for SWORD?
